What are some foods that restaurants never cook correctly

[BrothaZay]

I'll say Grits and gumbo

Grits is confusing though because it doesn't take long to make right at all

fukking steak, man.

You order medium, you get well-done.
You order medium-rare, you get medium-well.
You order rare, you get raw.

The shyt is not that hard.

Also halibut. I have never had halibut at a restaurant that wasn't rubber. I didn't even know I liked halibut until last year when I cooked it myself, and didn't overcook it.

Are you going to casual chains or steak houses?

my vote goes to pork chops

As a person that used to work at steakhouses, steak.

Random non-chain restaurants that don't specialize in steak, I guess would be the most apt description.
I've only had a couple steakhouse steaks. They were cooked well, but lacked seasoning.

You're right about pork chops. Unless they're smothered by a 97 year old black woman, they tend to come out dry.

Crab Cakes

 

[NoMoreWhiteWoman2020]

Collard greens and Mac and cheese, especially white restaurants.

Order it blackened to prevent that.

My investment banker friend always gets his high-end steaks cajun style. Maybe that's why. Good looking out, breh.

They key to this is to order a well done steak from low tier restaurants like I Hop, places like that don't even hire cooks that know how to make a medium rare steak and that shyt will come out bloody everytime. An upper tier restaurant where the plates are $20+ for a steak will treat you right

Crab Cakes outside of Maryland

Fixed that for you.

 

[Kyle C. Barker]

Lobster (granted I haven't been to new England)

 

[Born2BKing]

Chinese takeout in the south.

Haven't found one yet that's done it correctly.

 

[Laidbackman]

Fries of course. Did y'all not pick that up the other day in my dissertation
